Question:
A portfolio of three stocks with total market value of $1,000,000 currently has a Beta of 1.4. In light of an expected market downturn, you wish to reduce the portfolio Beta to no more than 1.0. Two stocks are likely candidates for sale, one with a Beta of 1.8 and a market value of $200,000 and the other with a Beta of 1.5 and a market value of $250,000. Assuming that you could find one appropriate stock to replace these two, what should be its Beta?
